Effective July 21, 2020, mandatory Stage 2 Water Conservation Measures are being implemented in the Riondel Water System.
The Regional District of Central Kootenay said Riondel Water Users must conserve water because of low reservoir levels.
STAGE 2 WATER CONSERVATION MEASURES include:
- Watering of lawns, gardens, trees and shrubs is ONLY permitted between 6:00 a.m. -10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. -.10:00 p.m.
- Watering of gardens, trees and shrubs by watering can or hand-held hose is still permitted anytime.
The RDCK said Stage 2 Water Conservation Measures will remain in effect until further notice and stricter water conservation measures may be required if demand increases significantly, or if hot and dry weather persists.
